A rascal plots to sell new "clothes" to the Emperor by pretending the
"cloth" is invisible to all but the wise and worthy. Will anyone tell the
Emperor that he's being tricked? What will he do if he finds out? Elden
Street's Theater for Young Audiences will answer these questions in this fun
- and sometimes silly - production of a favorite fable.
